The Local Government District Information Handbook for Qacha’s Nek pro-
vides essential data on the socio-economic aspects of the District, disaggre-
gated Council wise. The broad objective of this database is to assist Local
Government, Government Ministries, NGOs, community groups, individuals
and others to understand the socio-economic status and profile of each of the
Community Councils so that they can partner better with the Local Govern-
ment. This information is provided to facilitate informed decision making at
District and Community Council level while at the same time informing the na-
tional Local Government database, at a subsequent stage. We hope that this
Handbook will become a reference information book for all information per-
taining to Local Government in this district.
The information is presented in the form of tables providing statistical and de-
scriptive information of the Councils. These include data on the general profile
of the Councils, social indicators, gender issues, and information about selected
sectors, namely, agriculture, trade, health, HIV & AIDS, education, water, roads,
communication, energy, environment, etc. �

Qacha’s Nek District Council6
The local government elections, held for the first
time in Lesotho in 2005, led to the establishment
of 128 Community Councils, 10 District Councils
and the Maseru Municipal Council with about
1508 Councillors. Each Council has indirectly
elected Chairpersons and Vice Chairpersons as
well as a number of Standing Committees for spe-
cific purposes. The process of Administrative
deconcentration and integration at the District
level is coordinated by the District Administrator
who represents the interests of Central Government
in the district. The process of political and service
decentralisation is being managed on a day to day
level by the District Council Secretary. Each Dis-
trict and Community Council has a Local Govern-
ment Service staff compliment to assist in the
operations of the councils. A number of staff from
about nine Line Ministries, who perform functions
that have been decentralised to Local Government,
is assigned to work under a designated Council �

The process of development of this Handbook has been coordinated and supervised by Department of
Planning, Ministry of Local Government and Chieftainship (MOLGC). The following data collectors were
engaged and worked under the supervision of Community Council Secretaries (CCSs) to collect data:
Motšelisi Mataboee, Tebello Nthakong, Makatoko Letsie, Lefulesele Motlomelo Phatela, ‘Mancholu Mole-
mohi, Nteboheleng Lefulebe. Engagement of Data collectors and technical design of the process was sup-
ported by German Technical Cooperation GTZ. This information was collected using a CC Fact Sheet
(Annex 1) whose respondents were the councilors and their support staff. A detailed or intensive house-
hold survey was not employed. This is a first attempt at collating key information trends aggregated as
per CC boundaries. This information will be revised through updating, and subsequently validated against
other secondary data sources, especially from the concerned sectors at the district level �
